Needs to be banned ASAP:
Agree. It is absurd it hasn't happened yet. U.S. lawmakers traded a whopping $355 million in stock last year, we all the inside information they get no wonder so many of them become rich while serving in Congress ?
 
When it's clear to anyone with open eyes that a person is completely amoral then, no, there are no moral redlines. Ask the question anyway and let the man prove it.


Of course he is comfortable with his moral redline because there is none among most Republicans in Congress. Disgusting! And it is very concerning that Republicans actually have a real chance to taking over Congress again and Trump winning the presidency in a couple of years once more. I’ve never felt so discouraged about the state of our politics and the positions taken by the GOP.
 
This is great news. Now it is time for the Senate to do the same.


If nothing else, this needs to happen to permit the associated businesses in the states where it is legal proper access to the banking system.

If states' rights are to mean anything on this issue, the federal government needs to legalize. This should have been an easy bipartisan vote, given conservatives' stance on states' rights, but unfortunately the issue gets bogged down in all the history and prejudice surrounding marijuana prohibition.
 
Great segment on John Oliver’s show last night, summarised here.

Us Brits should be gutted letting a sharp, satirical guy like this go, when we see the great job he does over there.

On the other side of the coin, we also subjected the US to James Cordon, so horses for corses, I guess.
